A Transient sumo wrestler with a dynamic and care-free attitude. When younger students ask him for help, he heartily agrees, making him quite popular at school. Back in the mountains of his home world, he lost to a certain man in a sumo match and chose to quit while he was ahead. Ever since, he has trained ceaselessly in sumo technique and honed his mind, body, and skill. As a result, he has come to be called the strongest warrior in the nation, giving him the right to wear the Sacred Artifact of a Shinto Straw Festoon. He feels a strong empathy towards one born and raised in the mountains who presents a gloomy nature and a enchant for becoming attached.

Translated from Japanese

A Summon who is a member of the Sumo club, he has a cheerful yet rough personality, and has the qualities of a boss who guides his underlings. Because he often undertakes requests even when they're a bother, he is quite popular at school. In his home village in the mountains, a certain man, who despite being close to victory in a match, ran away from Ashigara. Ever since, Ashigara devoted to his time to perfecting the three qualities of sumo; heart, technique, and physique. As a result, he finally became known as "The Most Powerful Man in the Country," and was given his Sacred Artifact, a shimenawa, to wear. He has feelings for an affectionate, gloomy person who was born in the mountains.

The Sacred Artifact he holds can surround an area and turn it into a ring that excludes all outsiders, even when in the middle of enemy territory. The rope was said to be used by a water God when pulling landmasses, giving it a Rule that enables him to drag any manner of thing and prevents those caught in this rope form escaping. He uses this ability to force opponents into sumo matches. He hates people who quit while they're ahead in a fight and he also desperately hates being abandoned. He has a tendency to drag his past behind him and is extremely vulnerable when people point it out. He often hides in the mountains but returns right away when he gets lonely.

Translated from Japanese

The Sacred Artifact Ashigara holds can become a circular ring, and even if placed in the middle of enemy territory, will become an unbreakable arena. Furthermore, this rope has the power to pull in anything, and those caught in it become unable to escape. Ashigara uses this to his advantage to challenge people to sumo matches. His dislikes are people who quit while they're ahead. His greatest dislike is being left all alone. There's actually a side to him that lingers on the past, and he is surprisingly sensitive about it. He will retreat to the mountains if questioned about it, but will quickly leave due to the loneliness.

He is a sumo team member and a third year high school student at one of the top sporting academies in Tokyo, the Yoyogi Academy. The school is known to have strict training sessions and he has distinguished himself in that environment, making him famous among certain circles. As everyone at his school dedicates their youth to their training, they have a tendency not to know about recent trends. That's why he drags his underclassmen to the beach during the summer to remedy their obliviousness. He gets competitive toward students from other schools who are gaining attention and will dress up in a special outfit passed down as a school tradition for such occasions. Exactly how effective it is happens to be up in the air.

Translated from Japanese

A third year at one of Tokyo's most prestigious sports schools, Yoyogi Academy, and a member of the sumo club. Thanks to vigorous training, he's become such a veteran that everyone in his school, and even amateurs outside of it, know of him. However, because he's spent so much time training, he's become distant to the lives of other students, and social trends. With a shout of "Come with me!", he drags his Juniors to the beach. Ashigara excitedly bathes in the glances the other students give him thanks to his new look, which was said to be the idea of a legendary fashion coordinator at school, but the results are very questionable.

The momentary look of bashfulness on Ashigara's face gave way to a beaming smile that put the fireworks to shame.

Notes

He might be named after Mount Ashigara, birthplace of the legendary Kintarō.

Ashigara's 4 star title of "Tug of War Champion." is a mistranslation. 国引き (Kunibiki) is based off an old story where man ties a rope around the country and pulls it in. 綱取り (tsunatori) is the word for when a sumo wrestler who is rank oozeki (the 2nd highest rank in sumo) is aiming for the rank of yokozuna, the highest rank in sumo. His title is calling him the oozeki ranked sumo wrestler so strong he can pull a country. The mistranslation likely came from that 国引き and 綱取り share similar kanji as 綱引き, the Japanese word for tug of war.
